I don't think I'm the worst person in the world if I ever meet someone and have a five minute conversation.

I don't know if my personal experience counts toward some value as to whether or not I've just been lucky with my assumptions, but I seem to have a high batting average.

Impossible to say. 

I like to think I'm pretty good at it, but I haven't been tested in a way that withstands critical scrutiny. So...I dunno.

That really depends on the situation. From good to bad for me, sensing a scam, playing poker, closing a business deal, realizing when someone is just giving me shit, a woman signaling interest while drunk at a bar.

With time I've gotten much better at all of them.

I have an uncanny ability to sniff out a scammer and it has served me well.

There were more than a few times back in my younger days when I was getting hit on and was the last to realize it.

I'd say I'm pretty good.

Example, I can tell by the way op posts along with his avatar and sigline that he fantasizes about a mmm prison three way and Mexican donkey shows.

He also seems like the kind of guy who would deny this publicly.

I sometimes judge people by sight just based on how they look. I am almost always wrong.

After talking for 30 seconds I am normally dead on, based on the "vibe" I'm feeling. I suspect this "vibe" is simply conscious and unconscious cues my brain picks up, and it is definitely not all experience related. If someone seems weird or off, there is a reason.

That all being said, if we are trusted friends you can lie to me for the rest of my life and I would never know it or even suspect.

I knew a guy in the Army that when I first met him, I thought he was so full of shit.  After a while though, I come to realize I completely misread, misjudged the guy.  He was really something.  Should have written books about his life.  To top it all off, he became a very good friend.

I read people well....multiple years dealing with death investigations does that too ya....it can be a curse though...I don't like meeting people because most...well they're alive...the dead tell many things with less hassle...

Conversely I have been told by a number of folks that I am exceptionally hard to read...dry sense of humor, baseline facial expression, happy sad, mad or indifferent...it's all the same. Some of my colleagues request not to work with me due to this...the majority request me because of this...being highly qualified in niche things that no one else wants to do you kinda get what you get...

1.  Yes.  I also got pretty good at figuring out if you're dead on the outside.

2.   Maybe.  I had to run out the door when she said her husband was almost home.

Like an open book. After owning and operating a business for 25yrs. Two minutes on the phone with a total stranger and I can tell exactly their motive and level of honesty. My grandmother also taught me how to read body language. One last thing, my best friend is a self made multi millionaire, I've read books and studied these type people. They act NOTHING like what Hollywood portrays.

I can sniff out a narcissist fairly quickly.  A lot of people cannot see it.  Takes a chameleon to see a chameleon.  

Thank goodness I use that ugly skill for good, not bad.  Not a part of my character I'm proud of.

Enough to keep out of trouble.  

I work with a fine looking woman that is the most sweetest person you'd ever meet but fucks people over for no reason at all other than she is an evil demon inside.  I sensed evil behind that sweet exterior when I first met her and it has saved my ass.  When she was starting her divorce plan without telling her husband she hit on me a couple times, her hand on the inside of my leg once.  No fucking way would have I went there, I bet she'd boil your bunny after she destroyed your job and marriage.  

I can sense people who are treacherous motherfuckers and that is a good skill to have.

Pretty good. My new service manager has absolutely no experience in the field she's running. She sat in on our meeting and told everyone how she was going to fix everything wrong with our office and that if we ever needed her that she would always answer her phone and respond to emails.

I just said, "M'yep, we've heard it before. I'll give you a day before you act like everyone else." She swore up and down that she was different. Within a day shit was the same. She's now been here for three weeks. One of our techs got into a very minor fender bender and he called her so she could go to the scene of the accident and take pictures and take him to get a drug test and fill out the accident report. A manager is supposed to fill the report out, escort us to get the drug test and take pictures. Her response was, 'Oh, I'm not going to do that.'

She's pretty much lied from day one. While everyone in the department believed everything she's said and has been absolutely disappointed in her I've just sat back and smiled and said, "Told you guys so."

I've been in this business for 17 years and 90% of that time has been with the same company. I know how office drones operate. As in, they don't.

It is the sixth sense. Go with your gut feeling. The very first reaction to something or someone is the correct one. If your mind kicks in and you start analyzing, it is often wrong.

Every time I have disregarded the 6th sense, I have been wrong.

Yes, because I don't trust anybody not to try and screw me.

My motto was not only is the customer not right, they are usually up to something.
